Glass of Water

Scared of losing all the timeHe wrote it in a letterHe was a friend of mineHe heard you could see your futureInside a glass of waterWith ripples and the rhymesHe asked will I see heaven in mine?

Oh that is just the way it wasAnd nothing could be betterAnd nothing ever wasAnd they say you can see your futureInside a glass of waterWith riddles and the rhymesBut will I see heaven in mine?Oh, oh, oh

Son, don't ask,Neither how full nor empty is your glassCling to the mastSpend your whole life living in the pastGoing nowhere fast

So he wrote it on a wallThe hollowest of halosIs no halo at allAnd Televisions selling plastic figurines of leadersSaying nothing at allAnd you chimeStars in heaven alignOh

Son, don't ask,Neither how full nor empty is your glassCling to the mastSpend your whole life living in the pastGoing nowhere fast
